Lesson Information
We have many different lesson options available from learn to swim sessions to fitness focused P.E. pool sessions. These fitness sessions can be purely swimming or aquatic sport focused.
Our Water Safety sessions can consist of a minimum of any two of the following activities:
· Pool Safety – pool rules, pool side reach rescues.
· Beach Safety – surf beach rules i.e. swim between the flags, how to yell and signal for help, experience what it is liked to be rescued by a rescue tube.
· River Safety – the pool is set up as a make-believe river with obstacles to dodge, practice some basic river safety rules.
· Boat Safety – swimmers venture out in our inflatable rescue boat, learn to flip out and experience the air pocket when the boat is over turned.
· Life Jackets – swimmers wear lifejackets and learn the importance of wearing them during water activities, practice survival techniques if stranded out at sea.
· Clothes Swimming – experience the difficulty to swim in clothes and practice how to safely remove garments while treading water.
· Kayaking sessions may also be available. This is dependent on the group and the facility.

How Does It All Work?
Schools and community groups can request to have a mixture of lessons and the Water Safety programme or can choose to have lessons or Water Safety.
The number of lessons can be as many as you like.
These can be spread out over a number of weeks having a minimum of one session per week or can be lumped together with one lesson each day. |
